BACKSTORY
Xabier Belazco believes in honor and sacrifice. He has his own code of conduct that may differ from what one considers honor. Anything goes for him as long as you get your way. He won’t affect another’s path to getting what they want unless it comes into conflict with his goals. He is respectful of others and very polite, but will not hesitate to protect himself and his pride when he feels slighted. His experience has made him humble and he knows what he can do but he is never shy about testing himself.
Xabier Belazco was born in the Basque region of Spain. Xabier worked as a bouncer and was good at his job despite his size due to his attitude. He has an amateur background in boxing. He saw the MMA boom happening and decided to join in and study BJJ. He moved to the US to make his mark and competed in anything he could do. Now he is trying to finally make it big.
